DEAR FRIEND,
I AM MR. RAY AGWU THE MANAGER, BILLS AND EXCHANGE AT THE FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPARTMENT OF THE ZENITH INTERNATIONAL BANK LTD. I AM WRITING THIS LETTER TO ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND COOPERATION TO CARRY OUT THIS BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY IN MY DEPARTMENT. WE DISCOVERED AN ABANDONED SUM OF $25.5,000,000.00 (TWENTY FIVE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARSONLY) IN AN ACCOUNT THAT BELONGS TO ONE OF OUR FOREIGN CUSTOMERS WHO DIED ALONG WITH HIS ENTIRE FAMILY OF A WIFE AND TWO CHILDREN IN NOVEMBER 2001 IN A CAR ACCIDENT. SINCE WE HEARD OF HIS DEATH, WE HAVE BEEN EXPECTING HIS NEXT-OF-KIN TO COME OVER AND PUT CLAIMS FOR HIS MONEY AS THE HEIR,BECAUSE WE CANNOT RELEASE THE FUND FROM HIS ACCOUNT UNLESS SOMEONE APPLIES FOR CLAIM AS THE NEXT-OF-KIN TO THE DECEASED AS INDICATED IN OUR BANKING GUIDELINES. UNFORTUNATELY, NEITHER THEIR FAMILY MEMBER NOR DISTANTRELATIVE HAS EVER APPEARED TO CLAIM THE SAID FUND. UPON THIS DISCOVERY,I AND OTHER OFFICIALS IN MY DEPARTMENT HAVE AGREED TO MAKE BUSINESS WITH YOU AND RELEASE THE TOTAL AMOUNT INTO YOUR ACCOUNT AS THE HEIR OF THE FUND SINCE NO ONE CAME FOR IT OR DISCOVERED HE MAINTAINED ACCOUNT WITH OUR BANK, OTHERWISE THE FUND WILL BE RETURNED TO THE BANKS TREASURY AS UNCLAIMED FUND.
WE HAVE AGREED THAT OUR RATIO OF SHARING WILL BE AS STATED THUS;
30 % FOR YOU AS FOREIGN PARTNER,
60 % FOR US THE OFFICIALS IN MY DEPARTMENT AND
10 % FOR THE SETTLEMENT OF ALL LOCAL AND FOREIGN EXPENCES INCURRED BY US AND YOU DURING THE COURSE OF THIS BUSINESS. UPON THE SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF THIS TRANSFER, I AND ONE OF MY COLLEAGUES WILL COME TO YOUR COUNTRY AND MIND OUR SHARE. IT IS FROM OUR 60 % WE INTEND TO IMPORT AGRICULTURAL MACHINERIES INTO MY COUNTRY AS A WAY OF RECYCLING THE FUND.
TO COMMENCE THIS TRANSACTION, WE REQUIRE YOU TO IMMEDIATELY INDICATE YOUR INTEREST BY A RETURN E-MAIL AND ENCLOSE YOUR PRIVATE CONTACT TELEPHONE NUMBER, FAX NUMBER FULL NAME AND ADDRESS AND YOUR DESIGNATED BANK COORDINATES TO ENABLE US FILE LETTER OF CLAIM TO THE APPROPRIATE DEPARTMENTS FOR NECESSARY APPROVALS BEFORE THE TRANSFER CAN BE MADE. NOTE ALSO, THIS TRANSACTION MUST BE KEPT STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL BECAUSE OF IT'S NATURE.YOU CAN KEEP ME POSTED ON THIS EMAIL ADD:(phoenixdas@netzero.com).

Dear Mr. Agwu,

I am not sure where you obtained my private office email address from, as I am Head of Special Operations in the Foreign Office of Her Majesty's Government of the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.

However, Her Royal Highness Princess Candice has informed me that she is interested in your proposals. Please send more details under strict confidentiality.

Yours ever,

Lady Agatha Bristol, CBE
Head of Special Operations, Foreign Office, London


RAY AGWU (phoenixdas@netzero.com)

Dear mam,
Thank you very much for your quick response. I received your email and I am sending to you this message with the details of how we intend to get the funds out to your account quietly and smoothly.
However, with acknowledgement of your apparent understanding of the need for strict privacy in the transaction of this magnitude, I make bold to give you the details of the perfected modalities for the project's prompt realization.
It is absolutely essential for us to make official the process of the funds transfer, making it take the semblance of you as the next of kin to the late deseased, which under our modalities will be officially perceived to have been you as the next of kin,by making an application to the Zenith international bank Ltd claiming that you are the next-of-kin to the deceased.
My partners and I are presently handicapped because we lack a viable partner who has a foreign account and is ready to financially assist us in finalizing this urgent business, this is due to restrictive laws of the Federal Civil Service of Nigeria which forbids us bank workers from operating foreign accounts. So, consequent upon this, it is our intention that upon receipt of the duly typed application to the Zenith international bank Ltd claiming that you are the next-of-kin to the deceased, we shall validate the claim that you are actually the next of kin to the deseased.
This report will prove that you are the bonafide next of kin to the deseased in our bank. You will therefore be entitled for the release of the US$25.5M and subsequent remittance of the funds to your nominated bank account (for us all) by the Zenith international bank Ltd, in my country.
In effect, once my committee has validated the claim, the transacton will be a Bank to Bank affair. From the foregoing, you are therefore able to appreciate why we have hammered on the absolute necessity of our maintenance of confidentiality of the project. I will employ an attorney who will send you the application form,He is Barrister Remmy Adams. I would also like you to send me the first page of your international passport and a detailed mail elaborating more about your personal history. Once again, thank you very much for your expressed willingness to assist in this project, urgently await the completed application form to enable the bank commence action here timely this week.
Best regards,
Mr. Ray Agwu.
Zenith international bank Ltd.

Dear Mr. Agwu,

Please note that Lady Agatha Bristol is the correct form of address.

Your email makes perfect sense. Might I suggest one small thing; Her Majesty's Financial and Legal Adviser, Michael Montague Barrymore, and Agent Lonslo Tossov, my Head of International Diplomacy might need to be copied in at some stage in terms of the logistics of this operation.

Are you happy with this? I note that I have heard from your lawyer and will give him exactly what he needs.

Yours ever,

My dear Mr. Agwu,

Really, there is no need for this intemperate tone. We are not even aware of any application forms.

However, we are prepared to persist with you, provided you display the necessary respect to the Royal Family.

Please re-send us the documentation and we can proceed.

You will be required to sign an Oath of Allegiance to Her Majesty. Are you prepared to do this?

Honourable intentions work both ways, my dear Mr. Agwu.

My dear Adams,

Thank you for your note.

As I studied Law at Cambridge, I have one or two minor queries about this transaction:

i) Is it a pro-Quims/exentia-Bowden transaction? Or is it Twiglets-bound on the M'Naughten Rule?

ii) Do we need to draft a pro-bono Laxetate Schxite Document? Or is it simply a case of Pro-delinquency SpagBols?

Please answer these questions ASAP, and re-forward the text of application.

Many thanks.

As ever,

Lady Agatha Bristol, CBE
